    got to love Pompeo’s “we’ve said this before,” before reciting what Pompeo has said before and Trump just contradicted.

    Trump: “no preconditions.” Pompeo: Here are the preconditions.

    And why would Russia do that? Moscow sits nice and tight with everyone in ME coming to Putin to ask for a bit of this and a bit of that (at Moscow's discretion, of course).

    Indeed. Mattis is hardly a man who needs to prove he has a stick

    It would be wise to listen to Jim Mattis on these sorts of things.

    Qassem Soleimani's bravado today ("Come and get me Trump") is revealing: The top Revolutionary Guards brass has concluded Trump won't want to go to war (and that's why talk is cheap on both sides)

    I heard much of the same talk in the 1980s. We can do this; we can do that. Same folks as Bagheri (whose older brother died a pointless death in the Iran-Iraq War) deliberately prolonged a war that cost the lives of a quarter of million mostly young men. For IRGC, war is biz.

    “Enemies of Iran in particular US whose bases& interests are within reach of Iran’s defense forces,would better not play with the lion’s tail, because they will receive a solid...regrettable response on a very large scale”said General Baqeri.
